In the past week, we've added some very cool games. Whether it's a Tom Clancy knock-off, chicken fighting, backgammon, blackjack, or flying with a jetpack, there's something for everyone.
This is another game written on a deadline for a contest and it's amazingly fun. You have keyboard, mouse and joystick support and even a four players split-screen and single player co-op mode. You can play in all sorts of resolutions, as well as Windowed mode, so it should run fine on older computers and operating systems. As sandbox games go we are all looking for the next Minecraft and this one has potential. It's a lot of fun for a game with basic graphics and no real goal Spruce up the graphics or find a niche with it and set some goals, or multiple modes, like Minecraft, and this could be a huge game.
Radical Rockits is zipped and was built using the Unity game engine, so all you need to do is extract it and run!
Project Brooklyn is an open-world multiplayer third-person shooter loosely based on Tom Clancy's The Division's 2013's E3 Trailer Brooklyn.
It's been well received for an indie game on GameJolt and is pretty impressive for a small project.
Chicken Assassin - Master of Humiliation is a fighting game where you, the chicken, take on waves of enemies to defeat them and move on.
It's an Indie game, and it shows in many ways, but it's a great start. The players seem a bit far apart actually to be hitting each other, and there's no exit button. It's considered a release but we find it a bit beta-like in its current state.
It is easy to play right away with the mouse by moving left and right and using various keys to kick and punch. As you progress, you earn resources and battle items to make yourself stronger than ever. There's no install needed, just extract and run.
Woody Gammon is a Backgammon game that is no longer under development but still plays fine on today’s computers including multi-player.
It allows you to play with a friend on the internet (you’ll need their IP address), saving and loading games, play against the computer and even let the computer play itself. It even offers suggestions, as seen in the second screenshot below. Since I have no real Backgammon experience, this can teach you how to play. A status bar at the bottom tells you when it’s your turn, move rate, game type and more. The game is portable, so all you need to do is extract WoodyGammon.exe anywhere you like and play.
While Woody Gammon hasn’t been updated since 2004, we ran it just fine all the way up to Windows 10. It’s a small, free and fun game for Backgammon fans.
BJ Soft BlackJack is an older blackjack game that was considered a practice or training program. The game still runs all the way up to Windows 10.
Of course, nowadays you can play blackjack almost anywhere online, but if you want a decent simulation under 2 megabytes that you can play in quiet anytime, then this is for you. The game is available in multiple languages but even in English, there is some German text here and there but no so bad that you can't figure it out. BJ Soft
BlackJack does open your web browser when you end the game to show a casino advertisement but since it loads a page
that's now blocked due to gambling laws; it's harmless.
